    April started with a bang with the promotion of Nick Matthews into a Senior Consultant role. Nick is one of the most diligent, hard-working people I’ve ever worked with, and we are fortunate to have him.

    His speciality area is AI & Automation, so if you play in this space and are looking to meet the best sales talent on the market, feel free to reach out to him directly – nick@pulserecruitment.com.au

    This month also saw an uptick in candidate traffic to the Pulse Recruitment site, with a large volume of high-performing, “passive” talent reaching out to us directly to explore options. Some of these candidates have been waiting for commission payments to clear, with others looking for more stable work environments after Company redundancies.

    Either way, it’s a great time to contact us if you are considering adding to your team; likewise, if you are looking to discuss new career opportunities, you know where to go.

    Lastly, in next week’s newsletter, we will release the results of our Salary Survey with a big shout-out and much gratitude to all the 1,200 + people in Tech sales across Australia who contributed.
